    Using Firefox 3.5.

    I click on the Sign Out link, and the screen comes back with the same Sign Out button.  I deleted all the cookies related to msdn, still no help.  Any ideas?

    You can also delete the cookie, or just allow the cookie per session (but not be persistent).

    This was asked before. At the time I asked why the poster wanted to sign out of the forums ? There was never an answer that I saw.

    You can always sign out in HotMail if you are using a Hotmail address. That works in Firefox.

    I am not using a hotmail/live email address.  I use my work email as my Windows Sign In ID for MSDN postings.

    I went to http://home.live.com to sign out, which works, but then I come back to MSDN and it still asks me to sign out.

    The reason why I signed out in the first place was to check my other hotmail account, which is different from the one I use for MSDN.

    After I checked the email, I come back to MSDN logged in as my hotmail account, so I want to log out and use my MSDN account.  But I cannot sign out now.

    So I am actually typing this in Internet Explorer, which I really don't want.

    Thanks, it works now.

    I did a cookie search for msdn in firefox, didn't work.  Then I did a cookie search for microsoft and deleted everything related to it.  Works now.

    It's ironic how this type of error happens in the MSDN forum.
